Abstract:
Never has the supply chain environment been so dynamic, with constant change in customer requirements, business conditions, logistics costs, mergers & acquisitions, and more.
Decisions about the supply chain need to be made every day. How can companies get the data-driven insight they need to reach optimal choices, with an objective view of the likely impact, based on advanced analytics?
Supply chain network design has emerged in recent years as a core supply chain discipline, evolving from an exercise undertaken every few years to one that is practiced by supply chain leaders as a continuous process. This evolution is providing companies that have reached this stage of maturity with a powerful competitive advantage.
In this outstanding Videocast, we’ll explore the changes needed to make supply chain design a continuous process, emerging new best practices in supply chain design, and how consumer products leader Whirlpool has successfully embraced this 360-degree approach.
Featuring SCDigest editor Dan Gilmore, Toby Brzoznowski, executive vice president at LLamasoft, and Brian Streu, manager of the supply chain design group at Whirlpool.
Not to be missed by anyone interested in supply chain network design or supply chain improvement generally.
